How to start recycling
How I did it: Basically, I looked on my local council's web site to see when they collect recycling and what kind of items they will recycle. For my area, it's pretty easy - there are brown bags for paper, cardboard, etc and green bags for plastic bottles and tins. The only downside is that they don't collect glass, so as I'm still pretty lazy, the wine bottles go in the bin!
Lessons & tips: My neighbours seem to put out their recycling bags every week, even if they're not full, but that seems to be a bit counterproductive in my opinion, as it uses more plastic bags. I always wait until mine are full before putting them out for collection.
